The soft, creamy texture of this shea butter melts easily on the skin, making it ideal for use all over the body, but also excellent as a soothing treatment for dry hair ends.

Active ingredients

Shea butter (Butyrospermum Parkii Butter)

The Shea fruit tree grows to a height of about 20 metres and only grows wild in the West African savannahs. For thousands of years, the kernels have been crushed into an extremely nutritious nut fat or butter packed with vitamins, minerals, proteins and a unique composition of essential fatty acids. Unrefined shea butter has the highest number of healing and moisturising properties as well as the highest percentage of active ingredients of all butters and oils. Shea butter is particularly nourishing, moisturising and soothing for the skin and hair. It is anti-inflammatory, promotes the healing process and restores the skin barrier, promotes cell renewal and elasticity, and protects against extreme weather conditions and UV radiation. High-quality organic shea butter is beneficial for dry, chapped and irritated skin, itching, sunburn, eczema, skin allergies, insect bites, minor skin wounds, and it reduces fine wrinkles and lines.

Tocopherol (Vitamin E)

Vitamin E is a natural antioxidant that protects the formula and helps defend the skin against oxidative stress. It contributes to more supple, resilient skin and maintains the natural moisture balance.

Natural vanilla extract (Vanilla Planifolia Extract)

The base ingredient for the warm, soft vanilla fragrance. The extract is naturally sourced and contributes to a calming scent experience. The vanilla fragrance is 100% natural and contains no synthetic additives.

Origin

The cold-pressed organic shea butter is produced with respect for the environment by a women's cooperative in Burkina Faso. The high-quality organic argan oil, sourced from centuries-old wild argan trees in southern Morocco, is produced in an environmentally friendly manner using traditional methods by a local Berber women's cooperative that is supported on the basis of fair trade principles. Thanks to the economic success of these women's cooperatives, this unique wild argan forest can be protected from encroaching intensive agriculture, ensuring that this earthly treasure will be preserved for the future. At the same time, fair trade prices ensure that farmers and cooperatives are committed to the highest quality of their products. A real win-win situation. This shea butter is purchased based on fair trade principles.
